My take is that Global Warming AKA Climate Change is all about raising new taxes. They would be global taxes, too.

The New World Order already have the United Nations in place as a would-be global government. They also have the World Bank and the International Monetary Fund. The main issue is that the UN is still funded by contributions from individual countries. Those countries can choose not to send money to the UN which obviously threatens its existence.

If they could raise a global tax somehow and get the UN to administer its collection via, say, the World Bank, then they would be set for life. First they need an excuse and a CO2 tax sounds like a good one. The climate affects everyone and as it is basically an energy tax then everyone will end up paying the tax.

Initially, claim the tax will be "revenue neutral" just to help "the poor". Then gradually extract more for "overheads". Eventually, the original purpose will be downplayed and the overhead portion of the tax will win out and, lo and behold, the UN will have access to a global supply of revenue administered and controlled by themselves.

You can get this agreed democratically. The first step is to charge money from the rich countries and promise it to the poor ones just to get their votes. The Paris Climate Accord did that. Those poor countries are still wondering where their money is.
